Aka "(Korean) Italy towels".

My tech background is in the fact that our family computer in the early 2000s wasn't powerful enough to do much and my parents wouldn't pay for games, so I spent a ton of time digging around in Control Panel and system files and messing up the BIOS settings.

My studies have all been in the humanities and I've never worked in an actual tech role; I got into scripting and self-hosting because I'm lazy, I like FOSS, and I like systems that work in the way I tell them to rather than how someone else thinks they should work.

Shame someone can't make a bot for tha— ohhhhhh…

I hadn't dealt with video in years (like 2008) and recently used my Canon R6 to record a few seconds of 4k footage.

After getting over being annoyed at the camera stopping due to overheating after just 5 minutes, I was shocked to see a 7 second clip come to almost 700mb as a raw file.

Indeed video will probably be the last kind of network to see federation. It could take some pretty generous acts of philanthropy along the way to make anything sustainable happen.

An umbrella makes a crazy difference, I basically won't leave the house without at least a lightweight one in summer.

Note not all umbrellas block UV equally though.

Full keyboard navigation (j and k to focus up and down posts, u to go to user profile, c to enter comments…) including toggling expandos, and regex keyword filtering for me.

Investment bankers would like a word (but they probably don't have time).
